Lord Rooker: In addition to the normal Armed Forces occupational redundancy and resettlement package, full-time members of the Royal Irish Regiment home service battalions will receive a tax-free, flat-rate ex gratia payment of £28,000.

Baroness Byford: asked Her Majesty's Government:
	Further to the Written Statement by the Baroness Ashton of Upholland on 28 March (WS 68), in what way the Land Registry system varies from that used for the single farm payment such that the Government can set the Land Registry a target to process 98.5 per cent. of registrations without error.

Lord Rooker: The principles of the two systems are similar in that both organisations digitise to a scale of 1:2500 in the rural area. The underlying data in both cases is Ordnance Survey mapping.

Baroness Scotland of Asthal: Information on where an individual is serving a custodial sentence is not routinely recorded on the police national computer (PNC). When the Home Office, the police service or other authorised parties wish to obtain the current location of a prisoner, they apply to the prisoner location service (PLS), operated by the National Offender Management Service (NOMS). Information on the PLS is updated on a 24-hourly basis. The PLS currently deals with 160,000 enquiries per year, 100,000 of which come from the police.
